Following yesterday's reports of people suffering server woes during Street Fighter 5's launch, Capcom has now addressed many of the issues players were experiencing, adding a server side fix to improve stability. On top of this, there are a bunch of tweaks heading to PC.
One of the main PC features on the way is native DirectInput support for existing PS3- and PS4-compatible Arcade Sticks, which will be made possible in an upcoming patch. Capcom said in the interim, players can use XInput remapping tools.
Other changes Capcom is looking into include expanded key binding options, easier resolution switches, and adding in-game language options through the Steam client.

Crashing and freezing issues on PC have been addressed. Many of them were caused by users' anti-virus, according to Capcom. Adding Street Fighter 5's executable file to the anti-virus exclusion list should solve this issue.
